Tyler Cherry

Controversy During Cherry's tenure as communications director there was a controversy regarding comments they had made on Twitter saying "“Fairness means asking folks their preferred gender pronouns before assuming,” one of the screenshots shared online said. Other tweets included joking about arguing with family members over “systemic racism and police brutality”, as well as a call to “abolish ICE” [Immigration and Customs Enforcement]."

Cherry later publicly apologized for the past comments and said they do not reflect his current views.

Personal life Cherry married Jakob Stronko in 2022 when at the time both worked as government employees.
